Actually, it does make me feel better. Thanks. :)

Canadian Made, by Colt Canada a US subsidiary. :(

I hope that one day Canada will learn the lesson of dual purpose industry. Have Canadian owned and made small arms on principle of sovereignty and defence.

When military production is not required due to peacetime, convert production to civilian models. This can scale up and down a few production lines as needed. Ammunition is included here too. The civilian operations subsidize the cost of maintaining a permanent defense industrial footprint.

Use that civilian infrastructure as a recruiting tool for the military as sports shooters may be more inclined. You also generate a population base of trained marksmen to draw upon should conflict arise. The swiss model can be drawn upon for inspiration.

Canada’s liberals have been on a gun hunt since forever. They say they will cut the civil service to save money while expanding on past obscene expenditures for gun grabs. They wage war on civilian firearms industry, and the sports shooting community while also claiming to support domestic industry, especially defense, is such a raging case of suck and blow at the same time their heads are going to implode.

The globe and mail does not inform opinion, it sucks corporate dick shamelessly and publicly. The author should be charged with public indecency.

Why are the reserve funds so large and unspent? Because we’re a metropolis and we don’t build and fund projects like subways inch by inch as development projects are done.

Their solution is always to cut taxes and have government subsidize private profits, but the math never adds up. Who’s holding the debt bag? They never pay. Shit, the author calls for socialism on development charges, but … wait for it … not the profits!

The G&M talks out of it’s ass like a junkie trying to find more heroin. Just say whatever random bullshit you think will give you the profits you are jonesing for, no matter the incoherence. Only bliss matters.

G&M - fuck you, I’m getting mine.

Shhhhh.

Your problem is the question has already been answered twice. You apparently aren’t capable of understanding, so maybe talk less and read wikipedia more.

Close.Ukraine made a deal with Russia to return their nukes in exchange for non-invasion with US and European signatories as guarentors. (Because Russia has never been trustworthy.)

It’s why Nato supplying Ukraine is legitimate. Russia renegged on the non-invasion treaty knowing full well what happens.

Edit: Ukraine has no nuclear building capabilities in the short to medium term. Long term , who knows?

Therefore having nukes doesn’t guarantee you won’t get a hot war on your land.

No guarentees in life, but it is a bold statement with no evidence that comes to mind. Can anyone name a single nuclear armed country who was invaded?

All wars since nukes have been proxy wars by great powers. Russia is exceptional, in that it invaded a weaker, non-nuke non-threat country and flubbed it so badly guerilla strikes are hapening behind its front lines and frankly, across the country. They weren’t invaded, and Ukraine poses no real threat to the USSR so there are still no examples to support your statement.

Russia hasn’t blown Kiev with a nuke because the consequences would be severe, Including possible tactical nuclear reciprocity, and becoming a global pariah who loses the few allies they have left. It also makes no sense to nuke the prize you want to own or pop off nukes upwind of your territory as your own people will be very pissed off with any fallout. It would also trigger a massive change in posture of NATO. Any country so irresponsible with nuclear weapons to use them on non threats, non-nuke countries becomes a candidate for a capitulating first strike.

Russia has updated their nuclear doctrine so NATO powers can’t conventionally cripple russia by proxy via Ukraine as it would risk devastating escalation. But again, no one wants escalation. It’s an unnecessary posture as Russia started this as an agressor, and played the great game very, very badly due to internal corruption. They could stop it at any time.

Edit: As for Canadian defense against the US, there is no hot war defense possible. There are 2 effective defensive possibilities.

1. Nuclear deterrent. (A sub based nuclear second strike only capability similar to the UK.)

2. Preparation for an insurgency. Like Vietnam, Afghanistan, the US can take and hold whatever it wants for as long as it wants at a high cost. Canada could not defend against any hot war. An insurgency however would make it way too costly for the US to hold onto Canada for any length of time and would be devastating to onshore infrastructure and industrial capacity at a time where China is quickly rising. They would also be expelled from NATO and would have to counter China alone without its Western World allied military capabilities, supply chains or soft power.

Fuck off. My words would explain MAD, just like wikipedia did, but I’m too lazy to rewrite wikipedia for someone who has the knowledge of a child and an allergy to reading.

Edit:

If Ukraine got a nuclear weapon and Russia continued to do what it’s doing without using your nuclear weapons.

Stop being ignorant. If Ukraine had nukes, Russia would never had invaded. Your scenario is preposterous and you appear oblivious to even rudimentary geopolitics or military theory. Litteral 12 yo children get this. Why don’t you?

I did. This sounds suspiciously like trolling.

What bluff?

Why are all your comments hopelessly misconstrued?

If they had nukes, there would have been no invasion.

The point of nukes is to not use them. Countries with nukes negotiate. Countries without nukes get preyed upon.

Your comment is ridiculous considering there is an active war of invasion in Ukraine at present, and they traded their nukes in exchange for a promise not to invade. In retrospect, the nukes would have been better.

Tell that to Ukraine.

“Land-attack capability via cruise and/or non-nuclear ballistic missiles”

Canada needs nukes.

Their entire personality is based on shitting on the libs. They have no policy, no platform. They are a hate group.
